Anything from Lil Bow Wow? I know he says something about CO but not sure if he actually says Columbus or Ohio.

Jagged Edge Where Da Party At remix with Bow Wow. He does the "O-H-I-O" thing before his verse starts.

I'll explain the video I posted.

It's a Modest Mouse song called Ohio which is basically about how it's a boring place to drive across.

Hang on Sloopy doesn't count as it never mentions Ohio or an Ohio city.

Didn't the Red Hot Chili Peppers rhyme Ohio at least once, if not twice? I'm trying to get their lyrics.

Not Waylon. Willie Nelson and Merle Haggard. Townes Van Zant did the original.
